Eminem & Dr. Dre To Play The Grammy Awards

Continuing the annual Grammy Awards tradition of pairing A-list artists for musical collaborations, the Hollywood Reporter has learned that Dr. Dre will join his protege Eminem onstage at this Sunday’s show (CBS, 8 p.m.).

It will mark the rap icon’s first live television performance in more than a decade and comes on the heels of a stellar year for Em, who not only has the best-selling album of 2010 with Recovery, but is also up for 10 awards (he’s won a total of 11 Grammys since breaking onto the scene in 1999).

No rap album has been nominated for ten Grammys ever. Is the the greatest rap album ever created?? Em is undeniably the most technically skilled rapper alive, but that album was wack to me. It was basically 1) I miss Proof 2) I’m clean now, I’m sorry for making sub par albums recently and 3) I’m so raw.
I can’t stand how the Grammys dick ride Em so hard and snub some amazing rappers out there who dont have the same hype surrounding them.

And everyone else’s classic albums consist of….anything better than mourning and accepting the death of your best friend, the struggles of fighting inner demons, and keeping off drugs after being addicted for years, and trying to do this after dropping a dud only a year earlier? Spin the topics however you like, but dont act like the album is shallow compared to any other rap album thats relevant. On top of that you have the top single of the year so far….cry about other rappers not gettin no love if u want, but he created this buzz after becoming one of the most polarizing and confusing characters of the late 90’s, early 2000’s. As far as we knew, the guy really was a psychopath spittin as hard as anyone had before. The guy turned himself into an icon early on and he still eats off it. It dont make sense to cry about another nigga that isnt you gettin no love from the grammys. If you dont like it, the grammys aint for you dude. Hit up the BET awards

Right like the BET awards have anything better. And the so called dud that Em dropped earlier was nominated for album of the year. Grammys are dick riding hard on Em. Big Boi released an album that was one of the highest critically acclaimed albums of the year and he’s not even nominated for it.

@lexxi- to answer your 1st qustion-YES, tho i disagree with his reasons, i agree with HIP on the album not deserving a grammy. Em and the grammys are like brittney and mtv. No matter what they put they are getting nominations because of who they are. the reasons are obvious (at least for em). It wasnt a great album and, content aside, wasnt as good as a lot of other rap albums that were put out that got ignored.

“It dont make sense to cry about another nigga that isnt you gettin no love from the grammys.” But it makes sense to defend someone that isnt u thats nominated? i mean we get u liking em, but dont stan out then knock him for having an opinion.
